Psalm 23

The Lord is my home,
A place of security and love;
I shall always belong.

He leads me up mountains looking out over all that He has made,
He calls me to a place of rest and stillness with Him, in Him -
He fills my tank,
I can run once more along the paths He sets before me.

Even though things are not always straight forward, do not turn out well, and there is pain and hurt,
I can lean; enveloped and surrounded by His love,
love which takes away all the fear in my soul,
love that wraps around and heals the hurts in the depths of me,
love that reminds me that I am never alone.

He celebrates me with everyone watching,
His eyes are always on me and never leave me,
He will never be ashamed of me.
The abundance of His love overwhelms me,
There is nothing I will ever lack.

Only goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life!
There is nothing now or ever that can separate me from the One who loves me,
I will dwell with Him forever.
